Book is Published by: HOMOEOPATHIC MEDICAL PUBLISHERS,
201 Dinar, 20, Station Road, Santacruz (W), Mumbai- 400 054, India.
In this book they incorporated the provings of 6 rare
remedies. They are:
Lapis lazuli, the blue stone: symbol for purity & rarity.
In ancient times, it was as precious as gold. In Buddhist tradition
it is the colour of the Medicine Buddha. It lowers blood pressure &
is antispasmodic.
Lithium carbonicum
Ephedra sinica: supposedly the main ingredient of the
ancient ecstatic power drink Soma called ‘Vine of immortality’ by
Hindus.
Ginkgo biloba: Darwin called the Ginkgo tree a ‘living
fossil’, in mythology Ginkgo is the ‘tree of life’ or in symbolim
the leaf has been worshiped for centuries as a symbol of love.
Lignum aquilaria agallocha: very old wood of
fumigation: the Bibilical wood Aloe or Eagle wood.
Cypraea eglantina (Cowrie snail): antique
cultures attached supernatural powers to the Cowrie snail.
The proving of Anne Schadde & Dr. Juergen Hansel incorporated
all the advancements in the proving method. The book is aptly named
“Listening to Stone, Wood & Shell”.
They have given a study of the substance itself, its
properties, its place in nature, its survival strategy, its
reference in the human history, its proving, summary& Repertory
under each drug.
The proving symptoms are usually based on observations made by the
provers and in some cases observation made by the supervisors about
their provers.
Listening to stone, wood and shell will help us listen to our
patients and give chance to prescribe correct remedy. These proving
may give us some idea about healing power of these remedies.
Interestingly they have chosen substances that are relatively silent
in nature, static & seemingly inert. These proving, well done, well
written &well arranged, will undoubtedly prove to be valuable tools
in our practice.
